What reading level is Some French And Spanish Men of Genius Sketches of Marivaux Voltaire Rousseau book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The following poem, in quite another key, was 200 BERANGER. Written during the Restoration, and recalls the sanguine hopes of the enthusiastic boy-poet. The poem is supposed to be addressed to the actress who impersonated the Goddess of Reason, then young and fascinating, now old and wrinkled : THE GODDESS. And is it you, who once appeared so fair, Whom a whole people followed to adore, And, thronging after your triumphant chair, Called you by her great name whose flag you bore ? Flushed with t...he acclamations of the crowd, Conscious of beauty (you were fair to see), With your new glory you were justly proud, Goddess of Liberty ! Over the Gothic ruins as you passed, Your train of brave defenders swept along ; And in your pathway flow'ry wreaths were cast, While virgins' hymns mixed with the battle-song. I, a poor orphan, in misfortune bred For fate her bitterest cup allotted me Cried, ' Be a parent in my mother's stead, Goddess of Liberty !' Foul deeds were done that glorious time to shame ; But that a simple child I did not know : I felt delight to spell my country's name, And thought with horror of the foreign foe.
